(Jonrasl Special Service.) z
Washington. May 1. Htronr pressure
is being brought to bear-upon Preaident
Roosevelt to withhold the Oarfleld re
port on the Standard Oil Inquiry until
after the rate bill has been disposed of.
It is believed that the report . will be
sent to congress within" afew days. In
spits of the opposition... -. .
One of the most Interesting, features
of the Oarfleld report will be the evi
dence showing that rebating is practiced
steadily by the "Standard Oil and Its rail
road connections.-despite ths plea which
has been so persistently proclaimed that
the Elklnr act had put a stop to rebates.
The hollow mockery ofthe" Elklns set
Is thus shown, and It Is expected that de
mands will : be-made oa-eongreee -'Im
mediately for remedial legislation." -
Telegraphs-wires between this city" end

anxious inquiries from both ends as to
tha Standard Oil expose and Its probable
effect on the market. - Ths stock crash
yesterday was largely the result of tbaJ
